One Thing to Carry Today: Essay

 

One Thing to Carry Today: Essay

If you were asked to carry one thing with you, what would it be? Good question. I have good enough common sense and practicality. I made more good choices in life to be proved. And a few bad ones, that cause regrets. Tell me, who does not? Nobody is perfect. I guess the question addresses priorities. Well, the priorities could be changed in certain circumstances. Inevitable self is certain about the smile of dignity and self-worth, charisma of self0insurance, confidence, and natural bravery. Maybe, it would be strength not the one from muscles but empowered by heart and kindness.

People say that old wine is better. I am not a wine drinker. But if things are better with age, I am reaching magnificence. The older I get and the more time I spend on my laptop writing, I find out that I have a lot of things in common with computers. We both started out with lots of memory and the drive, then became outdated, crashed unexpectedly, and eventually we would have to replace our parts.

Okay. Alright. On a serious note, old and senseless, age and irrational decisions are popping up. Perhaps, it is a possibility that accessibility and general mobility I must carry along. And then look, it is not the gray hair that makes you look aged, it is the full sentences and punctuation that I use writing and texting that I carry with me.

Majority of people of different ages are divided into takers and givers. Taking in positive vibes, learning and appreciating continuing education, slowly but sure. Also, excepting the reality, without any illusions, required both to take and keep physical and mental strength.

Giving and sharing both bring satisfaction of gifting, without asking anything in return. The most valuable way of giving is sharing our time and small acts of kindness; simple, spontaneous, the ones which are from the heart.

When you are surrounded by truly wonderful places, surrounded by time, and majestic nature, you will carry one thing with you: you, yourself, and your state of mind. You pray for blessings to stay safe and protected and find the strength to hold down to. Only the strong can survive.
